TOD: My sister used to make something called Grasshopper Pie. My mom tried to make it, but it turned out soupy, so my sister gave it a try and it was wonderful. My dad especially loved it. I don't think I've had it since I lived with my parents.

My DH won't eat pie, and my daughter won't try it because it contains creme de menthe, so I have never made it here. It was probably a 1970's popular food item. Does anyone else remember it?

I must get some work done, but I fear too much of my day will be dealing with yesterday's bathroom disaster.  I have a pile of damp towels and rugs to launder, the bathtub to clean out and scrub, and a big vacuuming effort.

I wish the damned elevator were in service.

TOD

Junket....(does this even exist anymore?)

Chocolate pudding. ( I would put mine in the freezer and eat it frozen, my family thought it was disgusting...then years later they came out with frozen pudding pops which became a huge hit...I'd be rich today if they didn't stifle my juvinile ingenuity)


Jello  had these 1-2-3 jellos... You made them like regular jello but after you poured them in the individual glasses   and put the.  in the fridge it separated into three distinct layers

Lemon meringue pie, which I started making so age 9 because my mother hated making meringue.


I haven't had it in years as neither Vixdad or the Vixter would eat it

Not looking forward to this morning.

AAA is coming to fix a flat front tire I discovered late yesterday, and my car is parked head first in my garage.

Tomorrow morning, Annabelle goes to the vet, and I'm frankly very nervous about it.  I don't know why, but I'm fighting this huge fear that they will find something more serious than a polyp or respiratory infection.  I've had nervous attacks over procedures U've beeb through, but I swear nothing has had me as alarmed as my fears for Annabelle.

For the past week she's slept every night next to me, something she hasn't done in months.  She stopped during all the tsuris of medicating her and Thatch.  I think my bed became synonymous with a torture chamber, where she was forced to endure eye salves and syringes of foul tastes.

Then, about a month ago, I would come home to find her and Thatch taking their afternoon naps on my bed.  Thatch prefers to sleep in the cat tree, but around 3:00 this morning, he crawled into my bed and moved around, sleeping next to Annabelle, sleeping on my chest or next to me, but around 5:30 he moved back to the cat tree.

Maybe I'm late noticing it, but DR Elmore has a new quote. 

Remember when Albert Schweitzer was somebody you grew up knowing about?  Like Helen Keller.  These were people kids were taught about, and had some grasp of their doings, from the get go.  I wonder who today's equivalents are.

In our family, Jello and pudding were staples, and ice cream was always of the Borden's half-gallon carton variety that was more milk than cream.  I'm sure I liked all of these things well enough, but I was a kid who was known for not having the usual sweet tooth and I often eschewed dessert.

DR JohnG --  Regarding Chess:  I didn't mind the book.  I've never seen Chess before so I didn't know about the changes that were made.  I agree that the score is great.

I have to get my mental energy up for this laundry day.  I'm sure it's the weight of the damp towels that concerns my walking down four flights with them under one arm.  Sooner begun, sooner finished, I guess.
